Well I need to get catalytic converters for my car due to Provincial regulations. I called a local muffler shop that is know for good work. They told me why pay for the extra in a magnaflow when he said all cats now are high flow?. Is this true should I still pay 150.00 per magnaflow cat then others. I told him I want the same sound and stuff as I have an Off road H pipe with currently no cats. So what are your suggestions keep it to my topic as I need to get this done soon.


Thanks Josh

Well iv heard some 5.0L with the magnaflow cats and sounds pretty close to what I got now. But I need cats sadly as emission standards are very strict where I live. Local shop sellin the cat from magnaflow for 150.00 a piece.

93338 is the part # for the whole stainless H. Its $350 at the place tim881 bought his, but I guess you have to factor in Canadian shipping cost or whatever; I'm not too sure how that works out.
